This heading covers clock cases, and, provided they are of a type similar to clock cases, cases for other goods of this Chapter; subject to this reserve, the heading therefore includes cases for alarm clocks, marine chronometers, motor vehicle clocks, time-registers, time-recorders or time-stamps, time interval meters (minute timers, seconds timers, etc.) or for other clocks of this Chapter. Such cases remain in the heading whether with or without glasses, and whether or not finished. But the heading excludes cases of a type not similar to normal clock cases but rather of the type used for scientific apparatus, electricity supply meters, etc. (cases for timers, time-recorders or time switches are sometimes of this kind); such cases are classified in their own appropriate headings.
The cases classified here are made in widely different forms; they are usually of metal (including precious metal), wood, plastics, leather, tortoise-shell, mother of pearl, marble, alabaster, ceramic materials, onyx, agate or ivory. They may be ornamented, trimmed with natural or cultured pearls or natural, synthetic or reconstructed precious or semi-precious stones, or combined with motifs, sculptures, statuettes, figures of animals, etc.
The heading also includes parts of clock cases, such as bezels, frames, pedestals, stands and feet.
The heading excludes :(a) Protective covers, usually of glass, presented separately (heading 70.20). (b) Parts of general use as defined in Note 2 to Section XV (which include springs for clock cases), of base metal (Section XV) and similar goods of plastics which are classified in Chapter 39. (c) Watch cases (heading 91.11).
